The Taft-Hartley Act, and other laws like it, have dramatically weakened American unions far below what's necessary to overthrow anything. If your strike is too successful, then the government will declare a compromise on your behalf and end it.

Joining a union is a good idea, and there's no reason why we can't come up with a clever program to avoid restrictions on unions too. I'm just explaining why Americans have not simply organized.

    If just the people who voted democrat (so leaving out disillusioned republicans and those who didn't vote) decided to strike, the government wouldn't be able to force 80 million people to work.

    Strikes and protests don't follow the exact letter of the law. I'm not saying to riot and burn cities, just show the same interest as when the local sports team wins a competition. You do see hundreds of thousands of people on the streets for that.
